#🔒 Error creating anaconda environment

I'm currently trying to get Anaconda set up in my computer to be able to use an anaconda environment I have for my work. So far, I have anaconda installed and am able to run some conda commands. However, I am unable to create new environments or install any packages using conda install ... due to what seems to be a permission issue:

> conda create -n mapta-tesis-312 python=3.12                                                                                                                                         
Channels:
 - defaults
Platform: linux-64
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): failed

# >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ERROR REPORT <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      ....message was too long, can provide full stack trace if necessary....
    RuntimeError: filesystem error: status: Permission denied [~/conda-bld]

As far as I can tell, this directory ~/conda-bld doesn't exist; it seems to be an auxiliary directory for Anaconda (although for what exactly is beyond my expertise). Trying to set up a different build directory also doesn't seem to have an effect, since this same error message appears:

==> ~/.condarc <==
auto_activate_base: False
channels:
  - defaults
conda-build:
  root-dir: /home/ramon/anaconda3/conda-build

Any ideas as to what might be happening, or what I can try? Thanks!

Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

nvm, all it took was creating the directory with mkdir conda-bld, although am still not sure why the config didn't take place, I'll take this

!close
